Visit HaveIBeenPwned.com and enter your email address to see if it appears in known data breaches. Also check if you receive unexpected password reset emails or notice unusual account activity.
Immediately change the breached account's password, enable two-factor authentication, change passwords on any accounts using the same password, monitor your credit for unusual activity, and consider a credit freeze.
2FA adds a second verification step beyond your password — typically an SMS code, authenticator app code, or hardware key. Even if your password is stolen, attackers cannot access your account without the second factor.
In order of security: Hardware security key (YubiKey) > Authenticator app (Google Authenticator, Authy) > SMS code > Email code. Use an authenticator app at minimum for important accounts.
Modern security guidance says change passwords when there is a known breach, not on a fixed schedule. Instead, use unique strong passwords for every site with a password manager, and enable 2FA everywhere possible.
